New Laws of Robotics: Defending Human Expertise in the Age of AI
Event Information
About this Event
Augmentation or Replacement is the great long-term question about Artificial Intelligence. How far should AI be entrusted to assume tasks once performed by humans? What is gained and lost when it does? What is the optimal mix of robotic and human interaction? In his new book, New Laws of Robotics: Defending Human Expertise in the Age of AI (Harvard), Frank Pasquale makes the case that policy makers must not allow corporations or engineers to answer these questions alone. The kind of automation we get—and who it benefits—will depend on myriad small decisions about how to develop the technology. Join us for a discussion between Frank and philosopher Evan Selinger on the issues raised in this important new book.
